This extension is much better at blocking ads than most built-in blockers. Make sure to install the official extension -- we have the correct link.

blog - git - desktop - images - contact The X11 SECURITY extension from the 1990ies It's widely known that X11 has a problem with, for example, keyloggers. The issue is not that keyloggers are possible through security holes -- but keyloggers are trivial on X11, as they are part of normal operation and don't require exploits. It is one of the reasons why people push for Wayland. I recently came across the X11 SECURITY extension, which is part of a normal X.Org installation. Quick overview of

Why I'll keep the Samsung Z Fold 7 over the Pixel 10 Pro Fold - especially if these rumors are true

zdnet.com Prakhar Khanna 2026-01-24 20:42:00

Prakhar Khanna/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is expected to launch on August 20, but it might not go on sale till October 9. It will be difficult for Google to beat Samsung in the foldable segment this year due to design differences. Unless there's an actually useful AI feature or significantly better battery life, I'll stick with my Galaxy Z Fold 7.

Tesla and Elon Musk Sued by Shareholders Who Say Robotaxis Violate Traffic Laws

gizmodo.com Matt Novak 2026-01-24 20:25:50

Tesla shareholders filed a lawsuit in federal court Monday against both the EV company and CEO Elon Musk, alleging they made “materially false and misleading statements” about the safety of their robotaxis and the regulatory scrutiny that comes with launching autonomous vehicles. Tesla launched its Robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, on June 22, but there’s a human “safety monitor” in the passenger seat, and the robotic vehicles are geofenced to a relatively small area in the city.

When Cloudflare accused AI search engine Perplexity of stealthily scraping websites on Monday, while ignoring a site’s specific methods to block it, this wasn’t a clear-cut case of an AI web crawler gone wild.

AMD reveals vanilla RX 9060 with cut-down specs, for pre-built PCs only

Ever since foldable phones first appeared, I’ve had a complicated relationship with them. I wanted to love the concept from the very beginning, and I truly tried, but I could never get past how unwieldy they were. If you’ll remember, early foldables were comically thick, essentially feeling like two regular phones stacked on top of each other. Over the years, manufacturers have been on a mission to slim them down. Now, with the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, we’ve reached a significant
